  • Lustig Animation

      I read Born Modern and I was deeply affected by it. I wanted to express my infatuation with Alvin Lustig with some geometric vomit, but after I assembled the illustrator file, I thought I was close enough to the point of making an AfterEffects video. It was more difficult than I thought. Layers wrestling was tough.…

  • M Theory Animation

    M Theory Part 1 – YouTube. I saw this and I really liked the abstract content, but I thought the visuals could use a little update. Perhaps some kinetic typography. I’ve been dazzled by some well done typography videos recently, so I’m itching to be good at it. So, I tried it out. I started…

  • Sound Game Animation 2

    I spent some time animating this next part. I am getting a sense of how AfterEffects works with this type of animation and it’s thrilling. The next iteration is going to be a lot more smooth and polished.

    Music is Licensed under Creative Commons Attribution (3.0)stellarartwars / CC BY 3.0 Today, I started the beginning of the gameplay walkthrough of the Sound Game, working title: Rolling Riffs. First I’m going to take this character on a ride through my maze. Animate its little penguin body (add some feeble wings) to interact with the…

  • Science Infographic- Parts of a Cell, phase 3: Iterations

    Today, I rendered and edited footage. The animation for this small section took about six hours. From typography to collage. And it’s going to go through some feedback and revision before it’s the final version. This project I am working on for my graphic design portfolio is difficult at times because I am still feeling…

  • Science Infographic- Parts of a Cell, phase 1

    Yesterday, I went to Creative Circle, a staffing agency– because I need a job (I’m a recent graphic design school grad, hire me!)– where I met a nice representative. I explained to her my projects in my portfolio and filled out some paper work describing what kind of jobs I would like to get my name…

  • Triangle Fever

    I’ve been thinking how it’s kind of been year of the triangle for a lot of us in graphic design school. I know I fell victim once or twice. I felt like the Promotional video that the video editing team did for the portfolio show was strong, but I wanted to play with it some…

  • Lessons from Graphic Design School (Video)

    I made this video to summarize my time at Seattle Central Creative Academy. Considering all the mayhem of corrupted files and exporting issues and a virus on my portable hard drive, I managed to save this from the rubble. The video reflects my state of mind at the moment– a little messy pastiche– with the…
